VMware vSAN Administrator (2025) — Question 1

An architect is designing a VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF)-based solution. The company policy mandates that all VCF patches and upgrades must be tested in a development environment before applying to production.
Which VCF construct design decision would comply with this mandate?

Answer options

• A. Deploy two VCF vSphere Clusters within a VCF Domain.
• B. Deploy two VCF Domains within a VCF Instance.
• C. Deploy two VCF Instances within a VCF Fleet.
• D. Deploy two VCF Fleets within a VCF Private Cloud.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because deploying two VCF Instances within a VCF Fleet allows for one instance to serve as a development environment for testing patches and upgrades before they are applied to the other instance in production. The other options do not provide the same level of separation needed for thorough testing, as they either operate within the same domain or fleet without the isolation required for effective testing.
